Snacking can be an easy way to eat more fiber and enhance gut health. Emily Leeming, a gut health scientist, dietitian, and trained chef, emphasizes the importance of incorporating high-fiber snacks into our daily diets. Among her favorites are chocolate and nuts, which not only satisfy cravings but also provide essential nutrients.
Leeming highlights that chocolate, particularly dark chocolate, is rich in antioxidants and can be a delightful way to indulge while still focusing on health. Nuts, on the other hand, are packed with fiber, healthy fats, and protein, making them a perfect choice for a quick snack.
In addition to chocolate and nuts, Leeming recommends other high-fiber options that are equally tasty and beneficial. Incorporating these snacks into your routine can help improve digestion and overall gut health while keeping your taste buds happy. Embracing these delicious choices allows for a balanced approach to snacking without sacrificing flavor.
